With cancellation and renewal season right around the corner, you maybe be asking yourself if How to Get Away with Murder is renewed for Season 7. Unfortunately, the answer to that is no, seeing as we’ve finally reached the end of the road for this series.
ABC announced in July of 2019 that How to Get Away with Murder‘s sixth season would be its last, giving the show ample time to wrap up Annalise (Viola Davis) and her students’ stories. For some, that means a gruesome death, while for others it might mean a new chance at life with way less murder and mayhem.
“Deciding to end this series was a brutal decision, but ultimately the story tells you what to do — as it did here,” showrunner Pete Nowalk said of the decision to end the series. “For me, Annalise Keating’s journey has always had a clear ending. Knowing I have 15 episodes left to finish her story, and the chance to give all the characters their own killer endings, is a gift rarely given to a series creator and I’m grateful to ABC and ABC Studios for the opportunity and creative freedom. I am so thankful to the brilliant cast, writers, and crew for dedicating themselves to the most rewarding experience of my career over the last six years. I also want to thank our fans. The only reason this show exists is because of your loyalty and enthusiasm. I can’t wait for you all to see how it ends, with twists and turns and all the craziness we love to create every Thursday night. Buckle up.”
